We need to prepare for a post-Ayatollah Iran.
We need to make sure they're on our side and not an Israeli puppet against us.
I've long stated that most Middle Eastern nations hate the fact that Türkiye is a secular nationalist republic. Israel always uses the whole Turkey is a "Islamist, Jihadist, anti-western" nation rhetoric. Ever since Erdoğan and Bibi started hating eachother.
Now things are changing quickly. UAE and Saudi have been reforming their image. But after crushing the Shiite axis, now Israel wants to focus on its Sunni neighbors. It'll prop up a secular Iran that's loyal to it and then fully focus on destroying its Arab neighbors. Once it fully controls them, it'll try to create a fully fledged alliance against Türkiye.
Of course this is all a big dream, I don't think it's viable for them.
But ultimately, we need to make sure we come out advantageous after the Iranian regime collapses. We have 30 million Turks there for f*ck sake.
